Marvin Sharrak Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
With heavy hearts, we regret to share the passing of our beloved Marvin Alaa Sharrak, son of Alaa and Clair (Awdish) Sharrak.
Born on May 4, 1977, in Southfield, Michigan, Marvin passed away peacefully on May 19, 2025. He leaves behind his devoted siblings, Sonia Bahri (Eddie), Tonia, and Brian (Minna), and was the cherished uncle of Luciana, Gabriel, and Leo Sharrak, as well as Roman and Reese Bahri.
Marvin made his home in Tulum, Mexico, where he embraced life with passion and joy. He was a talented yoga teacher, an inspired musician, and a creative cook. His love for playing the guitar brought music and warmth to countless gatherings.
In Michigan, Marvin poured his dedication into Marvin's Mini Market, his gas station in St. Clair Shores, where he worked tirelessly and took pride in his efforts.
Marvin's vibrant personality and captivating smile will forever remain in our hearts. He was a 'bobba' to four adored fur babies: Athos, Granita, Patch, and Bolt, who brought him endless happiness.
May his memory be eternal, and may we honor him always.

Sorry, I tried to put this all together. Marvin and I were not friends but knew each other in high school and then within the last six months we became really really good friends and we would FaceTime each other all the time and work on songs and just talk together. I found out about the memorial literally as it was going on and I felt horrible about not going. I went out to the cemetery on Sunday as soon as I was able to be alone. The people were nice and made me a map so I was able to have a conversation with him. I´m still shaking my head. Anyway, my deepest condolences for your loss.

Dear Sharrak Family, I am sorry to hear about Marvin's passing. I have been reminiscing of our high school days at Lahser. I can still hear his goofy laugh. He was a lot of fun and I will cherish the memories I had with him. I pray your memories will comfort you during this time.
